Tyrone Slothrop (slothrop@chaos.social)'s status on Friday, 02-Dec-2022 05:50:54 JST Tyrone Slothrop @Bluedepth @celesteh I‘d love to see „USians“ more widely used to refer to inhabitants of the USA.
There are lots of other „Americans“, between Canada and Patagonia. There are North Americans outside the US.
USians is precise, simple and not in the least derogatory. Let’s use it more often!

Bluedepth (bluedepth@mastodon.social)'s status on Friday, 02-Dec-2022 05:50:55 JST Bluedepth @celesteh USians. That’s a new term I haven’t run into before. Doesn’t have the same twang as “Great Satan” but I like it.
